I made one and it worked well but I only filled it twice and never hunted it. And unfortunately my camera malfunctioned every time they came in. There was a perfect circle around the t-post where they were working it.
The first time they broke the cable so I had to get a stronger one. I think it's important to use a swivel so the cable doesn't get twisted and break. I also attached it to the t-post with a big ring so the cable wouldn't wrap around the post.

I used an old beat up 50 gallon drum. Threw a couple of welds on the joker so I could hook a chain to it then, put some random holes in it and chained it down to a tree. The only problem I had was keeping corn in it. They would empty it every week, but it made plenty of noise and made for easy killin'.

I have made and used them several times with success. I use a coated cable dog leash with the screw in thing you by at home depot. they could spin that thing as much as they wanted and it wouldnt knot up. The one I liked the most I had an old cow bell attatched to the end so I new they were there.

Looking at the picture I don't think this is one of those that's used with corn. I think it's more like a scent dispenser judging by he size of the holes. You hang it from a tree limb and fill it with hog wild or liquid attractant. Hogs will bang on it and the attractant drips out.
We put buck candy in ours and the hogs wear them out. We put them along the ranch roads and drive them at night.
